South Asian feminism is in crisis. Under constant attack from
right-wing nationalism and religious fundamentalism and co-opted by
'NGO-ization' and neoliberal state agendas, once autonomous and
radical forms of feminist mobilization have been ideologically
fragmented and replaced. It is time to rethink the feminist
political agenda for the predicaments of the present. This timely
volume provides an original and unprecedented exploration of the
current state of South Asian feminist politics. It will map the new
sites and expressions of feminism in the region today, addressing
issues like disability, Internet technologies, queer subjectivities
and violence as everyday life across national boundaries, including
India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. Written by young
scholars from the region, this book addresses the generational
divide of feminism in the region, effectively introducing a new
'wave' of South Asian feminists that resonates with feminist
debates everywhere around the globe.
